1. Mixers and Multifunctional MMICs for Millimeter-Wave Applications
Abstract : This thesis treats the design and characterization of different mixer and multifunctional monolithic microwave integrated circuits (MMICs) in GaAs pHEMT and mHEMT technologies. The MMICs operate at the V (50 – 75 GHz) and G (140 – 220 GHz) bands and several of them demonstrate state-of-the-art performance, level of integration, novel topologies, and/or novel functionality.

2. Microwave power device characterization
Abstract : The first part of the thesis covers work done on device characterizationmethods. A statistical method for estimating small-signal model parametersin FET-models was proposed. A maximum likelihood estimator wasderived and the new method was compared to a standard direct extractiontechnique. READ MORE

3. Silicon Carbide Microwave Devices
Abstract : This work deals with silicon carbide (SiC) microwave devices. It treats two devices; the Schottky diode and the metal semiconductor field effect transistor (MESFET). Different MESFET materials, fabrication processes, theoretical models for physical simulation, and device models are presented. READ MORE

4. 60 GHz Mixer and Multifunctional MMICs in GaAs pHEMT and mHEMT technologies
Abstract : In recent years, the 60 GHz band has gained increased academic and commercial interest mainly due to the relative large amount of license free and little used frequency spectrum located in vicinity of 60 GHz. The exact locations of these free frequency bands varies locally but the 5962 GHz band overlap around the world and is therefore a true world wide license free band. READ MORE

5. Microwave CMOS VCOs and Front-Ends - using integrated passives on-chip and on-carrier
Abstract : The increasing demand for high data rates in wireless communication systems is increasing the requirements on the transceiver front-ends, as they are pushed to utilize more and wider bands at higher frequencies. The work in this thesis is focused on receiver front-ends composed of Low Noise Amplifiers (LNAs), Mixers, and Voltage Controlled Oscillators (VCOs) operating at microwave frequencies. READ MORE
